Letter To My Daughter
Hope it’ll help you survive a men’s world
My sweet little baby, you are now a beautiful dark-eyed and always alert creature. What surrounds you still does not touch you. You look around you, you discover, you learn, but everything that comes to you is filtered by the care and attention of those who love you.
Unfortunately, this will not always be like that.
Someday you will be great and wonderful, and you will have to learn to move in this world by yourself.
There will be some wonderful things to see out there, but something scary will also come against you.
I can't tell you how to live, but I'd like to give you some advice that no one has ever given to me.
Always be yourself, even if someone doesn’t like it, even if someone doesn’t get it, even if people will walk away. Never change yourself for anyone.
On your journey you will find people who will tell you how to behave, because being you a woman they will think they can be in control of your life. Sometimes they will be people you only see on television, other times they will be people closest to you. Never indulge them.
By being a girl many will expect you to be polite, nice, to find your way because it is the trend right now but then you will have to be ready to abandon…
